A New York judge on Thursday ordered that an independent watchdog be appointed to oversee the Trump Organization before a civil fraud case by the state's attorney general against Donald Trump's company goes to trial.

The decision by Justice Arthur Engoron came in state Attorney General Letitia James' $250 million lawsuit accusing the Republican former president, his company and three of his children of over-valuing assets and Trump's net worth through a decade of lies to banks and insurers.

Trump blasted what he called Engoron's "ridiculous" decision, one day after suing James, a Democrat, in a Florida court to stop what Trump labeled her "inquisition." The decision bars the defendants from transferring assets without court approval, and requires that the monitor receive a "full and accurate description" of the Trump Organization's structure and assets.

"You said experts can disagree" on valuation, the judge told Christopher Kise, a lawyer for Trump at a hearing on Thursday. "But does there reach a point it's just not a disagreement ... but bad faith?"
